Ari dozed for a moment and turned over, then hearing low breathing he slowly opened his eyes and flipped over

"Good morning my comrade! Another bright day for training!" Omi said cheerfully. Ari groaned and tossed away from him digging his head into the pillow. For a moment Omi stared at the boy and sighed to much of his avail stepped outside while the others waited

"Well?" Raimundo asked punching buttons in the Gamepal

"He will not wake up" Omi said shaking his head "He sleeps more the Clay!"

"Hey!"

"I think I have an idea" Kimiko grinned and stepped into the room then laid beside Ari as their noses touched. Ari's eyes slowly opened and seeing Kimiko right in front of him, screamed, jumped back and backed into the wall

"HOLY GODDESS!" Ari cried "Don't do that! If you wanted me up that desperately you could've used water!"

"We were thinking that, but since I already did that to you yesterday we decided not to" Raimundo said "Plus, your face was priceless!"

"Gr..." Ari grabbed the little stool sitting in the corner and stood up

"Uh-oh..."

Master Fung was walking down the hall towards his studen'ts rooms to remind them of their chores and the training they had to do today, when he was about to turn he heard a roar from around the corner

"RAIMUNDO!" The dragon of wind dash from around the corner with wide eyes

"Morning Master!" he greeted before dashing away with Ari at his heels, flames blazing in his eyes swinging the stool around

"I'M GONNA KILL YOU! THEN KILL YOU AGAIN! THEN CLONE YOU AND KILL ALL YOUR CLONES!" Ari shouted after him. Master Fung bowed his head down sighing

"Children..."

ʓʓʓ

"Oh man... I can't believe you guys still wash the floors, I don't see any kind of dirt on them" Ari said sweeping with a broom as Raimundo and Clay scrubbed the floors and Kimiko and Omi wiped at the walls and monuments. Picking up a watering can Ari trudged to the nearest plant and sprinkled the clear water over the leaves

"Are you kidding? You should see the kind dirt Kimiko brings in with her shoes" Raimundo said before a wet towel slapped onto his face

"Shut up!"

"Perhaps our act needs cleaning" Omi said scrubbing furiously at a stone tiger "Curse you stain! You may think you are safe in between the gaps but I will defeat you!"

"It's suppose to be 'Clean up our act'" Kimiko said "And I think Master Fung makes us do this because there aren't enough monks here to clean the place anyways"

"Well, you just never know with Master Fung" Clay said and rubbed his neck "Oww... this is killin' me..."

"Look alive people!" Dojo asid slithering in then stared at all five of them "Whoa, you guys look half dead..."

"We just got up... What is it?" Ari asked rubbing his eyes

"Yeah, a new Shen Gong Wu I hope? One that'll help us scrub these floors..." Raimundo said

"Nope! You guys need to put up these good luck talismans and lanterns" Dojo said pulling over two giant boxes.

"What for? Are there Evil spirits lurking about!" Omi said looking back and forth

"Nope! It's almost Chinese new years!" Dojo grinned. Everyone stared in shock

"I thought that was in 2 weeks...?" Clay said

"What? No! It's in two days! Or, tomorrow I think" Dojo said "Now hurry up and put these all up over the temple!"

"Aww... Even the ceilings?" Raimundo asked

"Yup!" With that everyone looked up at the 60 feet high ceiling and sighed.

"I'll get the lanterns" Clay said "After I get the Third arm sash..."

"I'll help with the lanterns" Ari said

"Cool, Omi and I will get the charms" Raimundo said grabbing the box full of bright red papers

"Hey wait for me!" Kimiko huffed running after him. Ari picked up one of the colorful paper lanterns and hung one above the doorway leading outside

"Why ya putting one there?" Clay asked as the claw of the Third arm sash carried him up and allowing him to tack the lantern on the ceiling "There, one down, about a thousand more to go"

"A lantern at the door is good luck, keeps the bad spirits out and guides the lost spirits home" Ari said taking hold of another lantern.

"Say uh, how're you gonna get them up here? Unless you wanna put them down there" Clay said

"No, they'll be going up there" Ari said and took a deep breath. With a cry he ran up one of the pillars reaching the top and tacking one lantern on grabbing hold of the archways between the pillars.

"Ya sure you gonna be ok doin' that for all the lanterns?" the cowboy asked "I could always get the ones up here while you get some of the ones on the bottom"

"Says who? You're suppose to put them on the ceiling!" Dojo said "That's what Master Fung said!"

"Oh for crepes sake..." Ari groaned. Clay grinned

"Mmm, Crepes"

"There's no time for food, we still gotta get these up before lunch time" Ari said sliding down the pillar and picking up a pink paper lantern "I don't understand, why can't they just make these all red...?" Ari shook his head and ran to the next pillar.

"I dunno, it wouldn't look nice then if they were the same color" Clay said tacking up a bright green lantern. Again Ari scaled the side of the pillar and reached for the archway as his fingers brushed it.

"AH!" Ari screamed as his hand slipped and he began to fall. Clay pushed off from the wall and managed to catch Ari around the waist

"Gotch ya!" he said before the sash snapped taunt suspending Clay and Ari in the air.

"Phew, thanks Clay" Ari said smiling up at the cowboy

"No problem buddy" Clay grinned and hearing a crack looked up "Uh-oh..."

"WAHH!" both Xiaolin warriors plummeted to the ground.

"Typhoon Boom, Wind!" A cushion of air surface beneath Clay and Ari tossing them in the air

"Now that is nice timin' Rai" Clay said as he got to his feet

"Hey no problemo!" the wind dragon grinned. Clay looked up seeing the arch way he and Ari was hanging off of was broken with a large chunk of wood missing from it

"Aw man! Master Fung is gonna kill me worse then a cow in a slaughter house..." Clay said tilting his hat over his eyes

"That was a new one..." Kimiko whispered to Raimundo

"Not really, he said something about a cow and he's a COWBOY. Cow, cowboy, you can never set the two apart" Raimundo whispered back.

"I have been wondering... If Clay were to grow up into a man, would he still be a cowboy or a cow man?" Omi said rubbing his chin

"Cow man for sure!" Raimundo said

"Cow man!" Omi imagined a cow dressed in Clay's cow boy attire and shuddered at the thought.

"I'm standin' right here!" Clay glared as Ari examined the piece that tore off

"This doesn't look too bad" he said holding up the piece and rubbing his chin "I might be able to fix it"

"Really?" Ari looked at his friends and pointed to each of them

"Glue, Glue, Glue-" he reached Omi "Paint."

"Paint? Why paint?" Omi asked raising his eye brow.

"So if there's any chips missing I can paint over the wood you little Pacman" Ari said noogieing Omi

"Pack man? I am not a Pack man! I do not even know how to pack!"

"Omi! Remember Po-chi?" Kimiko said trying to help the situation, or..Just help explain to Omi... "Pacman is like Po-chi, it's a good thing!" Omi tapped his chin for a moment processing what Kimiko had explained

"So... I am Po-chi's brother then?" Raimundo smacked his forhead with his hand as Clay and Kimiko sighed.

"Just get the paint..."

ʓʓʓ

"Well, it's not perfect but it'll have to do for now" Ari said trying to wipe his hands "Stupid glue! My hands are stuck..."

"Mine too..." Raimundo said with his hand plastered on his forehead "This sucks! I hope none got in my hair"

"And my hands are the same color of the paint!" Omi said looking at his now red hands.

"Hurry guys, Let's get washed up before Master Fung finds out..." Kimiko said

"Find out about what?" All five dragons eyes grew four times bigger while their mouths hung open as a shadow loomed over them.

"M-Master Fung! Uh... guh..." Raimundo stammered trying to think of a lie and glanced up as his eyes bugged out again. Omi's eyes followed him and saw the piece of wood that was suppose to have stayed there was starting to droop and swing from the glue

"HYAA!" Omi cried jumping onto a pillar, bouncing off it, kicking the wood back into place and landing infront of Master Fung "Master Fung! Do you like my new technique?"

"A little slow young one, but none the less" Master Fung looked up at the piece of wood that seemed to have molded back "That still will need replacing" Clay sighed hanging his head as his enormous hat shadowed his face

"Sorry Master Fung sir... It's my fau-"

"It's my fault Master! I was busy hanging off of it and it snapped under my weight" Ari quickly spoke up stepping forwards "The others helped me so I wouldn't get in touble, so I'll take full responsibility"

"That won't be necessary Ari" Master Fung said a small smile tugging at the corners of his lips "That piece of wood is many years old, so it has already broken many times"

"Huh? Really?" Omi said blinking in amazment.

"But, instead of trying to run up the pillars you could have used the Jet Bootsu to put the lanterns up safely"

"I didn't see any use for them" Ari said "If I could do it myself why use a Shen Gong Wu to help? Plus, why did they absolutly have to go on the ceiling?"

"Yeah, I found that mighty weird myself" Clay said tapping his chin

"I did not say they had to go on the ceilings" Master Fung said "I instructed Dojo to tell you to just put them up evenly around the temple" the dragons, especially Clay and Ari, stared for a moment and whipped around all at once

"DOJO!" The little green dragon crawled out shaking

"Heh heh, opps" he said rubbing his claws together nervously "Saw uh, there's a new Shen Gong Wu!"

"Really?" everyone looked like they had forgotten about the dragon's mistake focused on the task at hand.

"Ah, the Tear Drop Pendent" Master Fung said looking over Kimiko's shoulder to look at the scroll of the Shen Gong Wu "Allows the user to heal wounds of whomever he or she wishes"

"Yeah but it's gotta at least touch the person it's healing" Dojo said "Alrighty kids! Here we go!"

ʓᧄʓ

"Wow, Spain!" Kimiko smiled looking around at the dry dirt sidewalks and small buildings "So this how Spain looks like"

"Yeah, I never thought it'd look like this, really nice, hot though..." Ari said shielding his eyes from the sun with his hand and pulling on the collar of his black hoodie

"Ok, but how're we suppose to find the Tear Drop Pendent?" Raimundo said "It could be anywhere!" Ari rubbed his chin and walked to a nearby stand

"Excúseme," he asked in Spanish "Estamos buscando un pendent, él nos formamos como una gota del rasgón" (We're looking for a pendent, it's shaped like a tear drop) The man at the booth pulled off a blanket from the table in front of him showing a wide selection of necklaces...All, in the shape fo a tear drop...

"Well that's not very useful..." Ari said and shook his head saying he didn't want to buy one "Apesadumbrado, no qué estoy buscando" (Sorry, not what I'm looking for)

"How do you know how to speak Spanish?" Kimiko asked while Ari dragged himself away from the sales man.

"Before I came to the temple I studied any language I could cause I didn't know where the temple was, so I thought it was better to prepare" Ari said dusting himself off.

"Ok, at least we can ask around" Raimundo said. A low rumble rocked the earth

"Uh, guys?" Clay said

"We know you're hungry! Ok? Help us find this thing so we can go home!"

"I don't think we'll have to worry 'bout finding it" Clay said pointing down the road "Look!" The low rumble soon became a roaring growl as a stampede of bulls turned around the corner snorting.

"RUN!" Omi cried as everyone turned on their heels and dashed away followed by the mass of bulls

"Whoo! Never had this much fun at home!" Clay said holding his hat down to prevent it from flying away

"Ooh you're from Texas? I had no idea!" Ari said running along side him "Is it true that their pancakes there are like cardboard?"

"Who said that!" Clay exclaimed in dismay

"Just a rumour!"

"Look! The road forks right ahead, Everyone go to the right!" Kimiko said as the sharply turned with the bulls right behind them

"WHY'RE THEY FOLLOWING US!" Raimundo shouted. Ari looked down at Omi and noticed he hadn't changed out of his tunic

"Omi's wearing red!" Ari said grabbing the young monk by the back of his shirt while running "And so is Clay!"

"You mean this thing?" Clay said pointing to the bandana around his neck.

"YES!" Ari reached over undoing the knot on the back of his neck and tearing it away

"Hey!" Ari wrapped the bandana around Omi's head and stuck him in the back of his hood

"Just hold on and don't fall out, ok?" Ari instructed and bent low. With a jolt he dashed forward past Kimiko and Raimundo "GET OUTTA HERE!" Clay lept into an alley way grabbing Raimundo and Kimiko dragging them away from the bulls.

"What's Ari doing?" Kimiko asked watching the bulls run past

"I dunno, but I hope he's ok" Raimundo said.

"AAAHHH! ARI MY FRIEND! WHAT ARE WE DOING!" Omi cried watching the bulls close the gap between him and them.

"Hand me Clay's bandana!" Ari asked holding his hand back as Omi placed the cloth in his hands "Great! So, see ya" Ari grabbed Omi's head and tossed him into the air ahead of him

"WAAAAAaaahhh!" Omi's scream grew fainter the higher he went as Ari ran to a nearby post and with a flying leap jumped to the side and tied the bandana on the post.

"aaaaaaahhhHHHHHHH!" Omi returned back to earth landing ontop of a bulls head. He was ready to beat the living daylights out of it until he saw something glint on it's horn. He grasped it in his tiny hand pulling it out.

"AH-HA! I have found the Tear Drop Pendent!" Omi shouted waving it in the air "I can now- WAH!" Omi held onto the Shen Gong Wu tightly as Ari scooped him up hopping over the bulls

"Oh man! This is harder then walking on water!" Ari said stumbling. Omi jumped out of his grasp

"Then I shall run!"

"Good, run to the others and I'll meet up with you, ok?" Ari said hoping over another bull trying not to get his hoody caught. They both nodded at each other and Omi dashed off

"Good luck, my friend" Ari placed his Elemental Gauntlets together.

"Elemental Gauntlets! EARTH!" he flipped of the last of the bulls and slammed his hands on the ground creating a small wall around the bulls made of sand stone from the earth

"Yo!" Raimundo shouted running towards him "Awesome work man!"

"Yeah, teach me how to do that some time will ya?" Clay ask grinning. Ari smiled

"Sure t...Thing... Urg..." Ari stumbled back a bit holding his head

"Ari!" Clay grabbed his arms before Ari smashed his head open on the ground.

"I'm...Ok..." Ari said standing up, or he tried anyway "Using Earth element with these gauntlets takes all the strength I have... Gotta work on controling how much of it I use..."

"Well, at least we got the pendent, functional, and fashionable!" Kimiko said holding up the jewel that sparkled a deep blue lined with gold.

"Great, now let's go" Raimundo said and looked over his shoulder "Hey uh... Where's Dojo?"

"HELP ME!" the dragon cried as the snorts from the bulls continued from behind the stone wall

"We... better go help him..." Raimundo said shaking his head.

ʓʓ

While they flew back to the temple Kimiko stared through the Tear Drop Pendent, everything turning ino a tint of blue.

"Kimiko! What are you looking at?" Omi asked suddenly appearing in her vision as the blue tint made his yellow head turn green

"WAH!" Kimiko jumped for a moment "Omi don't scare me like that! I was just looking!"

"Oh... ok!" Omi said cheerfully and climbed over to where Clay and Ari were talking.

"I think, that necklace would look really nice on you Kimi" Raimundo grinned snatching it from her

"Hey! Cut it out, give it back!"

"Aww, can't I see it? I wonder how I'd look with it on?"

"RAI!"

"Whoa take it easy! Unless you guys wanna fall a few thousand feet then go ahead!" Dojo shouted over his shoulder. Ari grinned and turned back to Clay and Omi

"So, what do you reckon's goin' on between those two?" Clay asked pointing at Kimiko and Raimundo play fighting and talking about video games

"I'd have to say, Rai's got a crush on Kimiko!" Ari grinned. Omi's eyes bugged

"Raimundo is going to crush Kimiko!" he cried and jumped away "KIMIKO I SHALL SAVE YOU!"

"No no!" Ari and Clay snatched Omi out of the air covering his mouth and waving nervously at the other two dragons, who waved back.

"Why did you stop me? Do you want Kimiko crushed!" Omi cried

"Let's just see where all this goes partner, ya know, it's just like..." Clay starting and rubbed his chin to find an answer for the monk.

"A test for them only" Ari finished with his finger in the air

"Ooh, will I get this test one day?" Omi asked

"Most likely"

ʓʓʓ

"Welcome back my students" Master Fung said as the five decended off of Dojo "I believe you were successful?"

"Yes, here you go" Kimiko handed the pendent to Master Fung as he took it and examined it

"Hm, well done everyone" Master Fung said "You may all have a break, you've done enough today"

"Yahoo! Time to play Goo Zombies!" Raimundo whooped running to his room

"I shall practice my Viper strike once again!" Omi said running off.

"I'm off to web surf, later guys!" Kimiko waved

"Well Ari, looks like we're the last ones, what're you gonna do?" Clay asked looking around "Ari?" He looked down seeing Ari under the same tree he was sleeping against last night reading his book without looking up "Uh, Ari?"

"Huh?" Ari looked like he'd snapped out of a trance "Sorry, when I start reading it's hard to pay attention to everything that's around me"

"So, what'cha readin'?" Clay asked sitting beside Ari and fixing his hat so the shadowing didn't block his vision from the shade of the tree

"Just a story about some interesting things" Ari said almost beaming

"Ok... What's it about?" Clay said rubbing his nose

"Well, it's about a team of people, all of them are cold and heartless except for one person, who pretends to be heartless but is actually a really kind person" Ari explained "Then one day, the whole team is in trouble but the one person stands up for them and fights for them saying this-'Those who break the rules are considered trash, but those who don't care about their teammates are worse then trash!' That is what she said"

"She?" Clay said with a hint of surprise "So it was a girl?"

"Yup, you'd be surprised what's in this book, it really changed the way I look at things now" Ari smiled and flipped it open again "What're you planning on doing now?"

"I dunno, trip ropin', maybe a nap, I dunno. Have any ide-as?" Clay said trailing off and looking down at his shoulder seeing Ari leaning against him softly snoring away "Hm, must be tired again" he sighed and looked up at the sun seeing directly above them. Well, Clay thought It's only around noon, Guess I'll take that nap... He tilted his hat over his closed eyes and leaned against the tree in a more relaxed position instead of sitting upright drifting off into a dream.

Authors notes: Ok.. This was kinda a pointless chapter... but still it had some point! Later on in the fic.. MWUAHAHAH! Thanks for reading! Hope you enjoyed this!
